Changing notebook power
settings
You can change the function of your notebook’s power button,
Sleep system key, and power-saving timers by changing power
settings on your notebook.
You can customize power settings from the Windows Mobility
Center by selecting power plans and adjusting advanced
power settings.
Changing the power plan
Power plans (groups of power settings) let you change power
saving options such as when the display or hard drive is
automatically turned off. You can select one of the defined
power plans or create a custom power plan.
Three power plans are pre-defined for you:
•
Balanced - This is the default power plan which balances
performance and battery life.
•
Power saver - This power plan sacrifices performance in
order to extend battery life. Use this plan if you will be
away from AC power outlets for an extended period of
time. Your programs may run slower than you are
accustomed to under the other two power plans.
•
High performance - This power plan sacrifices battery life
in order to gain performance. Use this plan if you need
additional computing power for your program. Your
battery may not last as long as you are accustomed to
under the other two power plans.
To change the power plan:
1
Click
(Start), All Programs, Accessories
,
then click
Windows Mobility Center. The Windows Mobility
Center window opens.
